Review 5

 

The LeapReader is a complete "learn to read and write" system that combines the three essential literacy skills : Reading, Writing and Listening.   By practicing them together, children can practice the skills they need to help them become confident independent readers

LeapReader books tap into children's natural curiosity and inspire them to explore. By connecting LeapReader to a computer you can see your child’s progress, expand the learning with fun activities and get personalized skill insights.

·         Transform letters into words that talk with 40 interactive flash cards.

·         Play five fun learning games and interact with 400+ audio responses.

·         Teaches short vowels, simple words and sound blends.

·         Ages 4-6 years.

·         Works only with Tag Reading System and LeapReader Reading & Writing System (sold separately

 Break Down:

The Good:  

·   No batteries to buy - you simply plug it in and recharge.

·   Large variety of books and even a large variety of stuff to do within each book.

·    The Learn to Write books were thick enough that we could easily set the practice paper in it and not worry about messing up anything

The Bad:
 Practice paper-  the only con we could come up with (other than not having one system for each kid.. ha!) was that we wish the practice paper /writing were made differently so that it could be erased vs using once and throwing away (think of it like receipt paper, there is no actual lead but you write by making pressure with the LeapReade.   

The Bottom Line:  I'm highly recommending this one if you have any children in need of a little help with reading or writing

 

Rating: 5 (excellent).
